Burkardt is temporarily in Mainz: Change to Frankfurt excluded!

Eintracht Frankfurt deals with the possibility of signing the talented striker Jonathan Burkardt from Mainz 05. Sports board member Christian Heidel, however, clearly opposed rumors about a winter change. "This is completely impossible for me," said Heidel. Burkardt is the top goal scorer of the Mainzer with ten goals, which has so far taken 40 million euros in the current season and only spent 10 million euros. Mainz 05 hibernate with 25 points in the top group of the Bundesliga and won in the last games against well -known opponents such as Frankfurt, Borussia Dortmund and FC Bayern.

Burkardt, who extended his contract until 2027 in January 2024, plays a crucial role in the successes of the association. He already scored ten goals this season and only needs one goal to equalize his best goal yield from the 2021/22 season. Due to his excellent performance, Burkardt is the focus of Eintracht Frankfurt. The remarkable development of the player cannot be overlooked, especially since he made his debut in the German national team in October 2023.

injury -related setbacks and market value

Despite his talent, Burkardt had to deal with injuries, including knee surgery in December 2022, which put him out of action for almost a year. At the end of November 2023, however, he celebrated his comeback. Burkardt is currently falling again due to a muscle injury. Its market value is currently 15 million euros, and if there is a change in summer, it could become one of the most expensive sales in Mainz 05 club history. The previous record sale was Brajan Gruda, who switched to Brighton for 31.5 million euros, such as Transfermarkt.de reported.

Speculation around Burkardt and Eintracht Frankfurt continues to increase, while those responsible for the Mainzers do everything they can to keep the valuable striker in their ranks.
